Bengal Brasserie Lisburn Road is a large Indian restaurant at 322 Lisburn Road in Belfast. Its spacious contemporary dining room is designed for anything from a meal for two to parties, graduation celebrations and larger group occasions.
The kitchen combines Indian cooking with seasonal local produce, moving from familiar curries to tandoori dishes and house specialities. Aromatic sauces, fresh ginger, garlic, chilli and carefully balanced spice give diners a broad choice of mild, medium and hotter preparations.
Vegetable jalfrezi, korma, dopiaza and vegetable side dishes such as tarka dal, saag paneer, aubergine bhaji and aloo gobi offer substantial meat free options. Rice, raita, poppadoms and freshly made naan breads make it easy to build a shared meal around several dishes.
Separate lunch, dinner and pre theatre menus suit different timings, while takeaway and delivery extend the menu beyond the dining room. Cocktails and other drinks support a longer evening, and guests with allergies should discuss their requirements with staff because many dishes contain dairy and other allergens.
